“ Laverne Phyllis Howard
God saw you getting tired A cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you And whispered,
""Come with Me.""
With tearful eyes we watched you And saw you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating Your tender hands at rest.
God took you home to prove to us He only takes the best.
Humbly submitted by Sis Cathy Rodriguez 11-21-13
Mom Alice, Darnell, Jackie, Sylvia and family My love and prayers are with you. Let Jesus loving arms comfort you and may His peace that passes all understanding be with you now and forevermore.”
